Roles
Overview
User permissions are based the single assigned user role. Yes, each user can only be assigned a single role - this simplifies security. User rights are cumulative, meaning that if you are in a higher-rights role then you inherit all of the rights of all lesser roles.
A guest is defined as an anonymous user, or a user who is not logged in.
